Mailbox Installation Instructions

Installing Mailboxes on a Classic Mailbox Post
Thank you for selecting Salsbury’s classic mailbox post.
This instruction sheet is for installing a mailbox on a Salsbury classic mailbox
post. Other installation instructions are available for mounting a newspaper
holder, assembling the post, and mounting the post in a concrete footing.
When you install a curbside or roadside mailbox, make sure that it is easily
accessible to the mail carrier. By regulation it should be 41” to 45” from the
ground or street surface up to the inside floor of the mailbox. The door
should be set back 6” to 8” back from the front face of the curb or the road
edge. However, you should check with your local postmaster to ensure that
the mailbox is installed according to local regulations.
